"Oh yeah! It's time for our first actual boss, Nep Jr.!" Neptune said, her eyes brimming with determination! "You guys are way too addicted to that Und****le game, you know that?" Shut up, it's a great game. "Whatever! It's boss time! You ready, Jr.?"

"I'm ready!" The determination is real! And, as usual, we're gonna skip all of the unimportant stuff so as to not waste any time. (Huzzah!)

"Holy cannoli! What the heck are those things?!" They… look like worms… Made of bone?

"What the goodness?!" Nepgear was having about as much trouble as Neptune in holding back her lunch at the idea that Bowser had those… Things in his body.

"Hmmm…" Starlow however, didn't seem quite as perturbed by the odd bone worm things. "Maybe we can use those to break through areas we normally wouldn't get through."

"Wait, but wouldn't that be like breaking several of Mr. Bowser's bones?" Nepgear has a point… Do it!

"... I think I'm going to enjoy this way more than I should." Whoa! Who knew that Starlow had such a sadistic streak to her? But that's enough original content for one day. Time skips ahoy!


"Uh… Jr.?"

"Y-yes, sis?"

"Is that supposed to be the boss?"

"I think so… Maybe."

Neptune and Nepgear weren't quite sure what they were looking at. It was… some sort of flat, circular bug resting on top of some odd pipe.

"Eek!" And then, out of nowhere it stuck out a super long tongue at the girls… Needless to say, but Nepgear didn't quite like the sight of it. Neither did Neptune, but at least she wasn't being a total pansy about it. (Uh… I think you got her mad again. Exactly! Now she's ready to stomp that bug into oblivion. Oh… Nice idea.)

"Oh boy." Oh hey, Starlow, buddy. "I'm not your buddy." Owch… That stings (Like the Stingler the girls used to get here? Stingler? You know, the weird electric shock-y thingie that opened the path to this place.) "I've seen these bugs. They live in Dimble Woods. Bowser must have inhaled it with whatever else he ate. But to have gotten this big… What's it been eating?" Cue the conveniently timed flames coming from the pipe underneath the bug.

"Oh… A bug that eats fire… Pocketed Monstrosities logic would indicate that it was weak to that stuff." Neptune said.

"Well maybe it's part fire type, sis." That… Would actually make a bit of sense. "Or maybe it has the ability Flash Fire!"

"At least that explains why Bow-Bow can't breath fire anymore."

Again, flames erupted from underneath the bug. "Well, let's bash its skull in!" Good idea, Neptune.

"EWW!" A displeased tongue was spat at Nepgear, who rocketed out of her spot and landed on the tongue boots-first.

"Nice thinking, Jr! Now hold still while I Nep this thing black and blue!"

"Sis! Don't leave me!" How did you get entangled like that? In such a short time? "It's all slimy, and disgusting!"

Oh, it's already almost de- "UWAH!"

"SIS WATCH OUT!" Ooh, using Nepgear as a projectile, add that onto the list of things she's been hit with this story alone. (I wonder if she's feeling happy right now, since she's so close to her sister. Well… She is a siscon.) "Ok… That's it!" You're both wrong.. "Hey, Mr. Bug, why don't you tell me how Hell feels? IF would LOVE to hear about it!"

"Jr.! Wait!" Neptune latched onto her little sister's arm. "Let's show off our new move!"

"Wait, but you don't have your special sword. You're holding a normal sword."

"Tsk, tsk, young Nepgear. Look closer." Behold! It was the Demon Slaying blade, the dark sword that pierced through the thousand sins of- (I am so going to kill you for making Aki say that. Hey, aren't you already going to kill me for being an influencing power of the birth of your army of Dragons? Wait a minute… That's not Aki's voice… ...Excuse me?) -Otherwise known as, M***LETAINN! "It's like what's his face said! Missletainn! You don't have to censor it, by the way." Let me do me. You do you.

"..." Even the bug stared at Neptune, baffled.

"Just finish the fight already!" Starlow shouted, only to have the bug's slimy tongue to latch onto her. "HEY! THIS ISN'T HOW YOU TREAT A LADY!"

"Sis, let's do it!" Nepgear was now magically next to her sister, their backs touching. Oh hey, I can hear Nepgear's heartbeat! Don't glare at me like that.

"Sister Attack," Neptune slowly raised her arms, Missl***nn in one hand. "Misslepainn!" An uppercut slash opened the combo, throwing the bug to squirm helplessly in the air.

The atmosphere froze, Nepgear's sword held high above the bug as she slammed into it, throwing it back into the ground. "Hiyah!" The Sisters; Purple impaled their swords through the bulging eyes of the bug, feeling the satisfaction as it exploded into coins, a mushroom, and a slime-covered Starlow.

"Nice work, Jr.!" Neptune said as she patted her sister's head, to which Nepgear just giggled contently.

"Aw gee. Thanks sis." Spoken like a true siscon. "And now that that bug is gone, maybe Mr. Bowser will be able to breathe fire again."

"Mission accomplished!" Spoken like a true Protagonist. "Starlow, mind telling the big guy the good news?"

"Sure. I guess I owe you guys one for getting me out of that thing." But before Starlow could even do anything.


"Whoa, what happened? My flame is back!" The burly king was astonished seeing himself breath flames again. Boy, did it feel good having his fire power back!

"You had a bug problem! You sucked one up and it plugged your flame pipe!"

"What?! Really?!"

"We already took care of it! Calm down, will you?"

"GWAHAHAHA!" Bowser let out a hearty laugh, content with the news. "Not too shabby! I might have to make you an honorary minion!"

"Uh… No thanks!" Yeah… That sounds like it would be terrible.

"Hmph! Well forget I offered. No one needs to know. What's your name, anyway?"

"Uh… My name?"

"Yeah. Your name. Give me it."

"Uh… Ummmmm… My name is um…" A short silence came. "CHIPPY!"

"And I'm Nep Skywalker!"

"And I'm uh…" Siscon! "Gear Skywalker!"

"Huh, weird names." Bowser shrugged them off. "Either way, the Flame Captain is back, baby! He's got a fiery temper-" (Bowser, you just earned some respect points.) "Don't interrupt me, emo hair!" ( ( ' _ ` ) . You really should have seen that coming.) "To my Castle, we storm!"


"Neptune, Nepgear, let's let Bowser do his thing." Starlow began.

"Yeah, since we can't go any further this way, and it didn't look like there were any other changes." Nepgear chimed in.

"Maybe he'll find some changes if he gets to just enjoy a walk."

"We'll find out next time, on Nep Ball Z!"

Chisaku: DAMN YOU FLOWEY!

Draco: How many freaking narrators do we have now?

Chisaku: Um... We were the narrators at one point, then it was Aki, and then Fluffy, and then I had Lulin sub for me one week, and then we had...

Draco: Okay, I'm gonna stop you right there. I get it, we've had a lot.

Chisaku: At least we have Pundertale and Witty Titles to laugh at.

Draco: That reminds me… I need to go feed Fluffy before it's too late.
